Kinder Morgan Boosts Working Storage Capacity On Its Texas Intrastate System

  • Kinder Morgan, Inc. KMI plans to expand the working gas storage capacity at its Markham Storage facility to provide electric service to over one million homes in Texas.
  • The facility is located in Matagorda County along the Texas Gulf Coast. 
  • "We are pleased to increase our natural gas storage solutions to further support Texas customers, particularly during severe weather events," said KMI Natural Gas Midstream President Tom Dender.
  • This expansion will provide the much-needed capacity boost to supply gas-fired electric generation facilities within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas.
  • Under the expansion program, Kinder Morgan has reached an agreement with Underground Services Markham, a Texas Brine Company LLC subsidiary.
  • The agreement is for leasing an additional cavern at Markham to provide more than 6 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of incremental working gas storage capacity and 650 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of incremental withdrawal capacity on KMI's extensive Texas intrastate pipeline system. 
  • Price Action: KMI shares are trading flat at $16.11 on the last check Thursday.
